Happy Wednesday, Kids! Halloween is approaching and we’ve been busy. Get ready for Deviant Dolls Publications’ first-ever anthology, ECHOES AND BONES, released TODAY!!

The Florida Keys, a psychic, and a chipped teacup; not very interesting on their own, but together, they weave dark, sometimes twisted tales of secrets, death, mystery and fantastic discovery. Join us as we listen to the echoes and wade through the bones, to unearth the treasures hidden in our deviant minds.

CONSTRUCTIVE DISMISSAL – Michael Keyton
Cheating a houngan is bad news. A classroom won’t save you.

THE LAST READING OF MADAME SHAHRAZAD – Steve Wetherell
Stacey James makes a comfortable living pretending to talk to the dead, but a dangerous stranger is about to put her talents to the ultimate test.

THE PAST ENTOMBED – C.M. Saunders
Amanda has a tragic past. She also has a gift. Or maybe it’s a curse. Psychometry. The art of ‘reading’ inanimate objects. It’s something she has struggled with her entire life, but learned to accept. Until one morning, when she stumbles across an object at a market which brings the past and the future crashing together. There will be consequences.

WASHER WOMAN SHOALS – Liam McNalley
Between her part time job mixing drinks at her landlord’s bar and deceiving tourists as Madame Ezora, Belle earns enough money to allow for a simple new life in Key West. A strange object found on the beach, though, turns her world upside down. Now, the only way to avoid certain death is for Belle to actually contact a spirit from the other side.

MISBEGOTTEN – Frank E. Bittinger
Haunted by a memory or haunted by an actual spirit, that is the question. Even in paradise, it seems you cannot outrun the past. Will turning to one who communicates with those who have passed beyond the Veil provide answers or will it only lead to a dead end?

THIS ONE IS MINE – Katrina Monroe
Patty will look into a stranger’s past for a small fee. Now, it’s time to confront her own.

KEEPER – Renee Miller
Ford’s dusty pawn shop in the Florida Keys is full of both trash and treasure. The items he hides in the room behind the store, though, are his most prized possessions, and definitely not for sale. Rare beauty, exquisite gifts; each worth a price only Ford comprehends.

To celebrate this and the many new things the Dolls have coming this month, we’re going to give away two paperback copies of the anthology, as well as two e-books (winner’s choice of title), as well as other goodies.

To be entered to win, just go to the book’s Amazon page HERE and HERE. (Sorry, U.S. residents only, because Amazon’s not big on international giveaways, apparently, but there will be more chances for non-U.S. readers to win). And stay tuned to the blog and our Facebook page for more Halloween posts and chances to win cool bookish things.

And don’t forget to check out my other new releases. Yes, there are many this month. So, grab a drink and let’s get started. (You might win something.)

 

Unnerving Magazine, Issue 4 (available now)

Go on over to my Facebook page for a chance to win an e-book copy of this magazine, which is packed with amazing talent. Seriously, get on it. You don’t want to miss out on this one. (PS: If you buy a subscription to Unnerving Magazine (just $10/year), you get this and MORE great horror. Just saying.)

 

Church (Coming October 17^th)

Again, head over to my Facebook page for a chance to win a copy of this before anyone else.

Broadswords and Blasters 3 (Coming October 13^th)

My sci-fi/horror short, GOLD, SKIN AND TIME is included in this brilliant anthology. I’ll be giving away an ebook copy of this one next week, so follow me on Facebook or Twitter (@ReneeMJ) for details.

Blood in the Rain 3 (Coming October 20^th)

I indulged my not-so-secret vampire fetish and wrote an erotic horror piece for Blood in the Rain 3. And there are many more sexy little stories full of blood and lust in this anthology. I’ll be giving away an ebook copy of this one too, so keep an eye on my Facebook and Twitter pages (@ReneeMJ).

 

Smalls’ Soldiers (available now)

Enter to win an ebook copy of this hilariously dark tale right HERE. Sorry, US residents only, because that’s how Amazon likes it and it’s their circus, so…. you know. There will be chances for non-US residents to win this book as well very soon.

La Femme Fatale (available now)

And I’ve got another Amazon giveaway going for an ebook copy of this deliciously dark tale. Enter for your chance to win HERE.

There. I think that’s all for now. I’ll be back with some kind of Spooktacular Halloween thing later this month.
